In this study, the fatty acid methyl ester was prepared from the vegetable oil by inducing ultrasound energy. The ultrasound energy was applied to the esterification reaction for heating and stirring effects. Ultrasonic induction results in the shortened reaction time and brings the increase of the methyl ester yield. However, the continuous introduction of ultrasound during the esterification reaction results in temperature increase, then the over-heating of reaction temperature was ineffective. Therefore, the system temperature was controlled at constant temperature state with the cooling circulation. The ultrasound induction reaction had the fatty acid methyl ester yield of 93% at the reaction time was 30 minutes, faster than the traditional esterification process.

Glycylglycine, alanylalanine and alanylglycine were synthesized, their free carboxylic and amino groups were converted to methyl esters of N-acetylglycyglycine, N-acetylalanylglycine and N-acetylalanylalanine. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for antiepileptic activity, plasmaprotein binding, $TD_{50}$ and potentiating effect of phenobarbitone sodium.

New synthetic method for diethyl N-[4-{[(2,4-diamino-6-yl)methyl]-amino}benzoyl]-L-glutamate(10) which is an intermediate of methotrexate is described. p-Nitrobenzoyl-L-glutamate was obtained via a two-step sequence which involves condensation of p-nitrobenzoyl chloride with diethyl-L-glutamate and Fischer esterification reaction with ethanol. Reductive methylation of diethyl-p-nitrobenzoyl-L-glutamate were carried out by reaction with formic acid and paraformaldehyde in the presence of $PtO_2$ catalyst and yielded diethyl N-(4-methylaminobenzoyl)-L-glutamate(7). It was followed by allylation and iodoazidozation to give the diethyl-p-[N-(2-azido-3-iodopropyl)-N-methyl]aminobenzoyl-L-glutamate(9). The cyclization reaction of compound(9) with 2,4,5,6-tetraaminopyrimidine was carried out by intermolecular nucleophilic substitution to give the desired methotrexate diethylester.

Bio-diesel as fatty acid methyl ester was derived from such oils as soybean, peanut and canola oil by lipase catalyzed continuous trans-esterification. So the activation of lipase(Novozym - 435) was kept to be up to 4:1, the limiting molar ratio of methanol to oil under one-step addition of methanol due to the miscibility of oil and methanol through the static mixer for 4hrs and the elimination of glycerol on the surface of lipase by 7wt% silica gel. Therefore the overall yield of fatty acid methyl ester from soybean oil appeared to be 98% at 50$^{\cdot}C$ of reaction temperature under two-steps addition of methanol with 2${\times}$2:1 of methanol to oil molar ratio at an interval of 5.5hrs, 7wt% of lipase, 24 number of mixer elements, 0.2ml/min of flow rate and 7wt% of silica gel.

Glycosyl acrylate and methacrylate were synthesized by lipase-catalyzed esterification of vinyl acrylate and vinyl methacrylate with ${\beta}$-methyl glucoside in t-butanol as a reaction medium. At the optimum conditions of initial concentration of 150g/l ${\beta}$-methyl glucoside, molar ratio of 1 : 3, 5%(w/v) lipase(Novozym 435) and $50^{\circ}C$, we attained up to 100% conversion for enzymatic glycosylation of vinyl acrylate and vinyl methacrylate by supersaturated solvent process. The polymerizable glycosyl acrylates and methacrylate are expected to have biomedical application as hydrophilic monomers and hydration modifiers to be used for biocdmpatible hydrogel.

This research aims at developing a new plant growth inhibitors related to abscisic acid by means of esterification of (S)-(+)-ABA with p-hydroxy methyl cinnamate and umbelliferone, and testing its biological activity on growth of rice seedlings. The over-all yield of ABA-methyl cinnamate(AC) and ABA-umbelliferone(AC) ester compounds were 83% and 78%, respectively. The growth inhibition activity of these synthetic compounds were shown about 3 to 10 times(AC) and 10 to 30 times(AU) higher than (S)-(+)-ABA.

This study investigates the use of methyl-esterified eggshell membranes (MESM) for the harvesting of microalgae species under various conditions. Eggshell membranes were esterified with HCl to impact polycationic characteristics. After methyl esterification, the negative surface charge property of eggshell membrane was changed from negative to positive for all pH values to improve microalgae sorption capacity. The harvesting efficiency of microalgae by MESM reached 78-99% for all pH ranges evaluated. In addition, a 150 mesh particle size and $10mg\;L^{-1}$ MESM dose were found to yield up to 98% microalgae harvesting. These results indicate that the high cationic charge of MESM strongly adsorbs the negatively-charged microalgae. MESM is biocompatible and can be applied to the harvest of microalgae.

재생 가능한 자원인 동식물성 기름으로부터 만들어지는 수송용 연료 바이오디젤은 낮은 대기오염물질 배출과 $CO_2$ Neutral 특성으로 환경친화적인 연료로 인정올 받으며 전세계적으로 그 생산량이 급격히 증가하고 있다 한국에서는 년간 20만톤의 폐식용유가 배출되며 이중 약 10만톤이 회수 가능한 것으로 추산된다. 폐식용유의 무단 폐기로 인한 수질오염과 폐기물의 자원 재활용 및 에너지 생산 관점에서 폐식용유를 바이오디젤 원료로 사용하는 연구가 많이 진행되었다. 높은 함량의 유리지방산을 함유한 폐식용유를 효율적으로 전이에스테르화(methanolysis) 하기 위해서는 먼저 산 촉매를 이용한 유리지방산의 전환 제거가 필요하다 본 연구에서는 다양한 종류의 강산성 이온교환 수지를 폐식용유의 전처리(pre-esterification)용 고체 산 촉매로 회분식 반응기에서 테스트하였으며 그 결과 Amberlyst-15가 유리지방산의 에스테르화 반응에 가장 적합한 것으로 나타났다. 회분식 반응기에서 도출된 최적 전처리 반응조건을 적용한 200시간 이상의 연속 전처리 운전결과 폐식용유에 함유된 $5\%$의 유리지방산이 $90\%$이상 전환제거 되었다 전처리 반응 후의 폐식용유를 균질계 염기촉매(KOH) 존재하에 메탄올과 전이에스테르화 반응을 시킨 결과 바이오디젤로 불리는 지방산메틸에스테르(Fatty Acid Methyl Ester, FAME)의 생산 수율은 $85\%$로 얻어졌으며 국내 바이오디젤 표준 규격에 따른 연료특성 분석 결과 FAME의 농도 규격을 제외한 모든 항목이 국내 규격을 만족하였다 폐식용유 바이오디젤의 FAME 농도가 $94.3\%$로 국내 규격$96.5\%$에 미달하는 문제는 식물성 원료유로 제조한 고순도 바이오디젤과 혼합 사용하거나 감압 증류 공정을 통해 고농도의 폐식용유 바이오디젤을 제조하여 해결 가능하다. 대전시 신성동 소재의 음식점에서 수거한 폐식용유를 원료로 하여 생산한 바이오디젤의 차량 배출가스 실증 테스트 결과 경유 차량의 주 오염물질인 PM과 Soot 및 기타 오염물질의 배출량은 감소하였으나 NOx의 배출량은 약간 증가하는 것으로 나타났다

Study has been made for producing anionic surfactant using waste fleshing scraps from the leather making process through refining, esterification, sulfonation and blending processes. As a most optimum lard oil refining method, refining was carried out for 4 hours under temperature of $120^{\circ}C$ and approximately 200 mbar vacuum, which gave a recovery of more than 80% lard oil. Refined lard oil obtained thus was undergone methlyl-esterification, then sulfonated to make a degreasing agent. By methyl-esterification using lard oil, more than 85% of fatty acid and $12{\sim}13%$ of glycerine were extracted from the oil. Sulfonation of the extracted fatty acid ester lard oil has shown most optimum at $15{\sim}20%$ chlorosulfonic acid content, and the content of bonding sulfate at this time was higher than 3.5%. Finally the followed anionic surfactant having degreasing force of 80% and higher could be made by blending process.
